| heal.abstract | Cirrhosis associated with moderate and severe portopulmonary hypertension carries a poor prognosis. Optimal management has not yet been defined. Current treatment options, such as prostacyclin analogues, endothelin antagonists, and phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors, are characterized by slow onset of action and various adverse effects, particularly in patients with advanced cirrhosis. Here, we report the significant reduction of pulmonary arterial pressure after 1-week terlipressin treatment in a patient with concomitant hepato-renal syndrome. Terlipressin could be a novel and safe treatment for portopulmonary hypertension. | en |
